It's my desire to give you access to the best information for Bible study that the Internet has to offer. This section of the site is devoted to on-line Bible studies and resources for personal research. Please note that the inclusion of a link here does not mean that The 2 Timothy 2:2 Objective endorses all of the material that may be found there; and we obviously cannot be responsible for any links that those sites may provide. I have tried to provide a brief explanatory note for each link taken from their respective site. All links on this page are listed in alphabetical order.
The on-line journals are those in which the user can access actual articles on-line for no charge.
I realize that this is by no means an exhaustive list. However I want to provide a place of easy access to as much information that I can. Any suggestions you may have to contribute to this list would seriously considered. If you have any suggestions to include to this list, or if you experience trouble with any of the links please, email info@2t22.org.
